Hen Party Bingo
A hen party isn’t just an average night out; it’s a celebration of a new era for the bride. As such, the whole evening should be full of laughter and entertainment from start to finish.
There are many ways to entertain the bride and her tribe at a hen party. Most hen games are pretty entertaining, but if you want to bring the night to another level, then maybe hen party bingo is the best way to go.
Hen party bingo is pretty much just like regular bingo - you have a sheet and the goal of the game is to complete a line. However, the big difference with party bingo is that each square is a fun challenge and not just a number.
Each player gets a card with bingo squares, and each square features a task or dare. Every task correlates with a number, which is written on the other side of the hen party bingo board.
How to Play Hen Party Bingo
Before you start, you must define some rules so that none of the hens can cheat. If anyone is caught cheating, there will be consequences: SHOTS!
● The game lasts one hour
● The first one to score a vertical or horizontal line wins.
● Tasks or dares must be witnessed
● Any cheating hen pays the consequences
The Bingo Board
You’ll need cards, a ruler, and a list of dares or tasks. Make 25 even squares on every card for each player. If you’re not the DIY type, you can just buy a hen party bingo kit online.

Casinos and Bingo Halls
If you and your hen tribe aren’t really the gambling type, then maybe your hen party is the perfect time to hit a casino. Enjoy your evening while you and the gang sip martinis, toss the dice.
